架构师提供的文本描述。M

Text description provided by the architects. The M&M House is a weekend retreat constructed on a five acre wooded lot. The client is a well-known New York artist and her husband. The first phase, a modest, one story house, was constructed in 2000. Organized like an open loft space, all services are concentrated in a compact central block, allowing natural cross ventilation and optimal use of living space. Responding to the constraints of the sloping site, the house is orientated to capture light and views, while the painted wood siding echoes the rhythm of the trees on site.

2011年，客户向我们提供了一份新的简报：工作室、车库和新的入口。其结果是一个垂直对位的水平主体的现有房屋，其中容纳内看起来的空间，工作艺术家的工作室。之间的空间成为一个延伸的开放式门厅，构成一个庭院空间，并服务于作品的展览。该地段缓缓下降到溪流，这第二阶段是一个实施新的景观战略的机会。我们与景观设计师紧密合作，为这座房子创造了一个结构化的几何框架，这与更大的场地的自然主义特征形成了鲜明的对比。

In 2011, the clients approached us with a new brief: a working studio, garage and new entry. The result is a vertical counterpoint to the horizontal body of the existing house, which houses the inward looking space of the working artist’s studio. The space between becomes an extended open foyer which frames a courtyard space and serves for the exhibition of work. The lot slopes gently down to a stream and this second phase was an opportunity to implement a new landscape strategy. Working closely with the landscape architect, we created a structured geometric frame for the house, which contrasts to the naturalistic character of the larger site.

The M&M studio addition was designed shortly after completion of the Maribor Art Gallery. The studio employs a similar five-sided plan strategy and figural roof geometries; what had been a space for the exhibition of art is re-purposed for a space dedicated to the production of art.
